Default guide/tutorial for learning about aperture/iso/shutter speed...

Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place or something, but I just got a nikon d3100 for Christmas. I'm trying to learn all I can about getting out of the auto-focus mode and more into the manual mode. I've been watching a lot of different videos and reading about aperture, iso, and shutter speed and when to use each and how they affect the photo and all that, but I haven't really been able to find a good tutorial or anything that shows you how each thing (iso, aperture, shutter speed) correlate to each other and examples of how to use each in different situations (bright, dark, moving shots). I guess I'm just asking if anyone can link me to a good beginner's tutorial to using all of these things lol. Sorry if I rambled... Thanks a lot!
